Remember how nasty Megyn Kelly was to Trump during a GOP debate during the 2015 primary season? Trump back then would appear on CNN and accused Kelly of blood coming out of her eyes, and whatever. Now, she is set to interview Trump again. Since she left Faux, she bombed at NBC and hasn’t been heard from much sense. This is probably nothing more than a pity play by Trump to try and help Kelly.
Journalist and political commentator Megyn Kelly announced Thursday that she will interview former President Donald Trump next week for the first time since 2016.
The Kelly-Trump in-person interview will be their first since shortly after the two were involved in a controversy during the 2016 presidential election cycle when Trump harshly criticized Kelly for pressing him on his history of objectionable comments made about women. Kelly said the interview, which will air at noon EST next Thursday, will be “spicy,” and she was grateful to Trump for agreeing to the discussion.
“I’m really looking forward to this. It’s going to be great,” Kelly said in a video posted to X. “It’s going to be spicy, and it’s going to be tough, but it’s going to be good and hopefully, we’re both going to enjoy it.”
“I’m very glad that he agreed to do it. He’s not saying yes to everyone,” she added. “And to his credit, you know, Donald Trump knows that I’m not somebody who suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome like the vast majority of people in the media, but I’m also not a sycophant, so I’m not going to go in there and be a bootlicker. It’s going to be fun, and he can handle it perfectly well.”
